Hi ~ So you've probably been reading about these 2006 Cal-Counters Challenge & Games threads... Just Holler if you want to play!  The more the merrier :)


Why are we doing this? 

• This is NOT about who can lose the most weight fastest or exercise the most. 
• This is all about Getting to know each other & having fun while we explore our new lifestyles and play both personal and team games. 
• This is all about
  • Eating appropriately (your own meal plans),
  • Getting Up & Moving (your own Exercise plans) &
  • Living the Good Life :)
• We all are busy so this will be mostly easy & a whole lot of fun!
• & just some fun competition between the teams ;)

I'm your Challenge & Games Hostess and will help you get your team started until you form up and have a team leader ~ I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you! Just call me United or Jules :)

We're forming Team H!  Do you want to play?  Post & let us know...   ID number ~ the lowest number is the person who has been here longest...  (We'll check your id # for you when you join)

Team members are: 

1. shaye1984  id #56919 (most senior so far)
2. fazerchic  id #123010

9. blondbeaty   id191153

Team Name:  You will need a team name ~ so please suggest team names when you think of one... 

Team Leader: You will also need a team leader ~  you to decide on who is the team leader ~ When we have a team leader, the team leader will start a real team thread to coordinate the games for you.  In the meantime, you can chatter here!

How to choose a team leader... The teams so far have agreed to have their oldest member be team leader, if they want...  but just Speak Up if you want to be the team leader!

What the team leader does?  Encourages team members, coordinates with the Panel of People Leading the games and...  not too much... 

We hope everybody will actually stay involved ~ commit to the games & each other, more importantly, commit to yourself  ~ this runs thru middle October or so... have fun with each other & enjoy the games!    

So... Do you want to play???  Speak up ~ post here & start forming your team ~ woo hoo!

I'm so excited for you!  you'll be my fav team, yanno ;) :::winkwink::: :::giggle:::


2006 Cal-Counters Challenge & Games

here's the format... 5 parts challenge & games (both personal & teams)

1. work on personal goals
2. nutrition trivia
3. explore meal planning
4. explore fitness & exercise
5. brain games & stumpers

When we Start

• teams will keep forming until the cut off Tues, 9/12 just before we start the regular Challenge and Games on Thurs, 9/14. 
• The Games run 6 weeks (a warm up week, 4 regular weeks and a finale week).  
• We start the *Getting2Know {{{U}}} Meet & Greet Activities* on Wednesday, 9/8 or Thursday, 9/9 {more when we know later! (but, you can catch up because this runs until 9/12, maybe 9/13)!

Start Chatting ~ Planning ~ Strategizing ~ Getting Ready! It will be a Rompin ~ Stompin ~ *All in Fun* Gr8 Time!!


Here's what team D started with :)

Make each other a *friend* (click on persons name and then add as a friend with the link next to their name).  Read each others posts & profiles... Tell us about yourself.  This is turning out to be quite the challenge, so lets lay it all out and see what cards we're playing with. 

Some things to know and discuss:  First of all, are you in a regular habit of logging your food and activities on the site or someplace else?  What is your typical routine  as far as foods and activities go?  Typically, what kind of daily grade to you earn?  Are you maintaining or looking to lose?  What are some of the goals you'd like to achieve thru this challenge?

Ok, so that's not a clean cut template for introductions, but gives each other some history.  

Once you have a team leader... the team leader will start your own official thread to discuss all this & more :)  Hope this helps!  Rock On!!!

I'm just the Hostess of the Games ~ But I'm here to help you get started :) 

Holler if you have any questions!  I'll be watching the thread here until you are full up & have your captain!!! 

Games on!

We've got a start... just need 5 more and a name. I made a few suggestions above for ya'll to ponder. I kinda like Hard body Hooligans.

Thanks shaye, fazer and veevee!

Hmm... I'll think about taking on the role as the leader, unless anyone else here would like to? I can only check in at work, so I wouldn't be able to encourage or anything over the weekends unless I ran over to my mom's house. I like Hard Body Hooligans for a name so far.

I am a hooligan but not a hard body...but I still LOVE the name!!!! Hopefully in a few months I will have a hard body!!!! :)

Made sure all are on my friends list and created a priority level for the team.  Waiting for instructions.

Priority level? Huh? Ohhhhh shheeessshhhh guys. Shoud I be doing something I am not? I havent been following this challenge very closely so you'll have to give me a kick in the butt if I am not doing sumthin I am suppose to be doin K?

feifei I am a soft body too but hope to be hard one day... soon if I could please?

OMG I can see it already, I'm the group geek... above I stated that we needed five more people... *blushes* but I forgot to count ME! Good news is: We only need 4.... now who can we rope in???
